No this isn't a story from the Onion.
Read below:
A Philadelphia homeowner started foreclosure proceedings on a Wells Fargo mortgage office after winning a rather strange legal judgement against the bank.
It seems that he wrote a number of letters why he was being forced to pay a home insurance premium for a $1 million house when he bought his 3-story Victorian home for $180,000.
When all his letters went unanswered he decided to give them a wake up call.
Somehow Mr Rodgers discovered:
the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, which requires mortgage companies to acknowledge written requests within 20 business days or face penalties. He took Wells Fargo to court, winning a default judgement because the bank didn't show up in court.
After he won the judgement and he still didn't here from Wells Fargo, he instituted foreclosure sale on their local office.
It is still due to take place March 5th. Wells Fargo has since paid the judgement but have not responded to his original letters so he is going ahead with the sale.
